Customer Reviews for Iron Horse 5 Gal. Portable Air Carry Tank

Does not hold the air in when you fill the tank,very disappointed.

I found the filling process numbingly slow. I use a large compressor with 3/8" delivery line, plenty of pressure and flow. The filling inlet is very very restrictive - air just trickles in. I removed the schrader valve core and the filling was much more tolerable - but of course the air immediately empties. Simply put, the filling "plumbing" is too restrictive. It's REALLY bad!

It will not fill past 80psi

The on / off plastic knob broke as soon as I touched it but other than that it works fine.

Great size, easy to operate, price was right!!

Some directions on using it would be no ce but it seems like a great product

Easy to use, carry, and holds a decent amount of air. Red knob broke shortly after arrival but mfger sent a total replacement valve at no charge.

This is a great little air tank. No problems with it, plus quick shipping / delivery.

Convenience in ability to air up low tires on equipment and cars is great!

The valve stem and core do not seal well against any of my tire chucks, 2 of which are brand new. I will change to different seals in the chucks.

Didn't use it for its intended purpose so not sure how good of a tank it is. I cut it up and used it for building a forge and it worked great for that purpose.

It's the perfect size to travel and air tires up etc., light weight

The tank leaked the first time. I put plumbers tape around the threads, The leak stopped but the air ran out in less than a minute

very nice love it & great price

Shipped fast and exactly what I was looking for!! Thanks

I pulled the tank out of the box and everything worked as expected.

This air tank came with a bad valve that won't let me fill with air. I'm going to see if they will send me a new valve or tank. Will let you know how they respond

Supposedly rated to 150PSI, I filled to only 120 PSI and this tank lost 20 PSI of pressure in just two days of sitting. The fittings are of low quality. Returned immediately. Save yourself the hassle and don't buy

yeah, not even leaking from a threaded joint that I could fix. Leaking from a weld. Defective. Returning it.

The air tank leaked from the threaded connection at the tank. I tried to tighten with no luck. I then tried to remove and reseal the fitting but it was so tight that I destroyed it trying. A new manifold valve was bought and installed with sealant and it still leaked. Must be something wrong with the threaded nipple that is welded into the tank. Threw it into the scrap bin.

Most air storage tanks are 10 gallons. I wanted something smaller and more portable. This 5 gallon tank was the only one I could find! Not only does it fit the bill, it is high quality construction and holds 150PSI, which happens to be the pressure that the Ryobi portable compressor will max out at-- so that's a great match! My 10 gallon tank stops at 125psi. My only gripe is that the included hose is fit just with a tire valve, not a pressure hose that I could attach a variety of air devices to, but I can change that easily enough myself. It's well made, has a nice gage and nice paint finish.
